Iheanacho limps out on Leicester City debut

By Daily Sports on August 5, 2017

Kelechi Iheanacho suffered a minor injury blow on Friday as he limped out on his debut against Borussia Monchengladbach after just 17 minutes.

The forward who moved to Leicester City on a five-year deal for a fee reported to be £25 million made his bow against the German topflight side who bowed 2-1 to the Foxes at King Power Stadium.

He replaced Shinji Okazaki in the 66th minute before getting an assist eight minutes later – finding Jamie Vardy who scored the winner.

With the Foxes taking the lead, the Nigeria international was forced off injured after a challenge and was replaced by Leonardo Ulloa.
